Hello everyone and welcome back for my rant on week three's school work,
Well I started out this week by doing the database assignment,which really was not hard to do at all, all we had to do for this assignment was to look up web design information on both Pro quest and the Seattle library catalog, our objective was to figure out which database you would use to look up certain information like which one would go more in depth. after completing that assignment i moved on to the library catalog assignment, in this assignment we were suppose to find books at our college library that could help us in doing our pathfinder assignment.
After doing that I moved on to the visting a library assignment, this assignment I have to say took the most time and effort to do, the main objective of this assignment was to have us visit a college library and explore it, we were sent there to figure out where the main book collection was located and were the reference and peroidcal sections were located. Then after doing that I went on to do the organzing information assignment, which I did on my movie assignment.We were suppose to talk about how we catorgized or organized our collection.
Well thanks for reading catch you next week,
joe

Hi Joe:
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your blog entry. However, you left out the section on how your college work applied to your life.
Below, I'll post the guidelines for writing your blog entry so you'll have it handy.
Cheers, Francine
Guidelines
The subject line for each blog entry should be “Journal – Week 2" or "Journal - Week 3 "etc.
Part 1. Reflections on Course Content
* A paragraph on how you completed each assignment. (For example: "I used the Seattle Central Community College Library system and tried using ProQuest and Ethnic Newswatch to find articles on my topic.")
* Observations about the results of your search. Don't forget to tell your instructor what terms worked best! (For example: "My first search in ProQuest was too general and I got several hundred articles. When I reviewed the list of articles I learned that a more specific term got better results.")
Part 2. Applications to your Life
* Comments about the assignments. Did you run into problems? Did you learn anything important? How did you feel as you worked on the assignments?
* Comments on your personal learning and time and stress management issues for this week.
Each blog entry should be about 150 words, and should cover each of the above areas. Please use proper English, punctuation and grammar and avoid abbreviations like "IMHO" and "LOL." And, keep in mind that your blog is on the web. Don't post anything you wouldn't want your mother, sister, spouse, friends, employer, etc. to read.
